AFP, SYDNEY: Australia’s all-time leading goal-scorer Tim Cahill said Friday he intends to continue playing at club level and is also interested in a coaching career following his retirement from international football.
Cahill, who scored 50 times in 107 appearances for Australia -- including five times at the World Cup -- announced his retirement earlier this week, ending a storied playing career with the Socceroos.
Cahill, 38, said he intended to live with his family in the United States, heightening speculation that he might seek to play in the Major League Soccer (MLS).
“International retirement is done, but as for domestic, there could be an opportunity but it is still something I have time to decide,” Cahill told a media conference in Sydney.
He ruled out returning to Australia’s A-League, where he last played with Melbourne City.
